NCERT Class 12 Maths · Chapter 7 Integrals · Exercise 7.6 Question 22

Integrate sin⁻¹(2x/(1+x²)).
Inverse-sine integrand: three principal branches
Inverse-sine integrand: three principal branches

💡 Concept Hints

  1. Identify the domain and the inner and outer functions, or the relevant one-sided limits.
  2. Apply the appropriate differentiation or limit rule, keep all chain factors, and check exceptional points.

✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: For |x|≤1: 2x tan⁻¹x−log(1+x²)+C. For |x|≥1: π|x|−2x tan⁻¹x+log(1+x²)−2log 2+C.
  1. Principal branches give 2tan⁻¹x inside [−1,1], π−2tan⁻¹x for x≥1, and −π−2tan⁻¹x for x≤−1.
  2. Integrate each branch by parts using ∫tan⁻¹x dx=x tan⁻¹x−(1/2)log(1+x²).
  3. The outside constant −2log 2 makes the pieces agree at x=±1. Thus this joined primitive is valid on all R; retain a common arbitrary constant C.
